Ok this College is not as bad as what everyone says. The only think is that it is meant for a certain type of student. If you are someone who is very interested in the outdoors, want to spend your weekends either hunting, skiing, fishing, or hiking and just lay low at night, and if you would like to participate in multiple sports and clubs, then this is the school for you. However, if you want a true college experience,where you can find a rager 4 nights a week, join a frat, or go to a school where sports matter, then this isn't the place for you.

For me, I couldn't stand it here. The people are really friendly and welcoming but after transferring in from a party school, I couldn't handle the weekends here. Weekends are really quite and you end up just drinking in one of your friends suites. Occasionally, there are off campus parties, but those are 10 minute drives so you have to plan a DD and its just a hassle. I honestly feel bad for some kids here because they dont get the full college experience. I think everyone should try partying and if they dont like it then its fine, but you only get to go hard once in your life and thats during college. I miss weekends where if you walk outside, everyone is playing beer pong outside day drinking, and once night comes, there are options for which party to go to.
This school it self isnt terrible, but if you want to go to school for the entire college experience, dont come here.
One last thing, many people think the kids here are racist and ignorant. Thats not true at all. I am a colored kid and everyone has been as nice as you can be. If you are one of those people who comes in with a negative attitude and gives people not to like you, then obviously people wont, but if you are open minded and are willing to try new things, you will make a lot of friends here regardless of color.
